The Marvel March 2023 solicitations are here with the below preceding column populating the rest of our Top 15 list for that month.
ORIGINAL.
Top 15 Marvel Comics March 2023 Solicitations Spoilers With Dark Web Fallout, Avengers, X-Men, A Miracleman, Multi-Colored Goblins and More!
Among the initial Marvel Comics March 2023 solicits we picked out our Top 15.
However, Marvel has billed this as Part 1 of their solicitations with Part 2 to come later this month. Some new series that Marvel announced are included in its Part 1 solicits, such as a cool new series featuring a fan fave character, while other new series that Marvel announced, but aren’t part of Part 1, will likely be in Part 2 such as X-Cellent #1 (of 5). In addition to that, there are other books readily apparent missing from the solicits, but it is not clear whether that is because some of Marvel’s February 2023 titles will be delayed or not. I assumed no delays and my Top 15 titles for March 2023 include the following books not solicited yet, but that are expected.
- Amazing Spider-Man #21 and #22
- Bishop War College #2 (of 5)
- Gold Goblin #5 (of 5)
- X-Men Legends #7
- X-Treme X-Men #5 (of 5)
So, with that, do you agree or disagree with our top picks?
